Day was reportedly doxxed within an hour of writing her post on GamerGate. The immediate doxxing of female GamerGate critics, including Day, has been pointed to as an example of the sexism of the movement. Former NFL player Chris Kluwe, who wrote his own post calling GamerGaters basement-dwelling, cheetos-huffing, poopsock-sniffing douchepistols, said Day was only targeted because of her gender.
None of you fucking #gamergate tools tried to dox me, even after I tore you a new one. Im not even a tough target
Instead, you go after a woman who wrote why your movement concerns her, Kluwe said on Twitter.
In her post, Day explains that, like 18 percent of internet users, shes experienced her share of severe harassment, and has even had stalkers show up on her doorstep. But that while she is sickened by the stigma and fear GamerGate has had on the community, she encourages everyone to keep gaming.
